I have seen this movie only once, about 20 years ago, on television and ever since, it has struck a chord with me. The very recollection of the film brings me to tears. An extremely well directed film, and equally good performances by Imogen Stubbs and James Wilby. The film scored very high in other departments as well, photography, music, direction and what not. My only regret is that I have not been able to see it again, as it is not available on VCD, nor has been telecast (to my knowledge) in my country again. I only wish I could have this film on VCD so that I could see it whenever I wish. I would strongly recommend this film to anyone who enjoys good cinema. The film has a sad end, but that is how it should be. I understand that short story (Apple Tree) on which this film is based, had a different end. Surely, it could not have been better.

I watched this movie way back in 1995 on Star Movies. It was not recommended and I was just changing channels when I stumbled upon this movie (luckily). It had just started so I thought I'll just check the start and I couldn't change the channel till it was over. A brilliant movie. The name of the movie struck me. I have a few friends who are movie buffs and I had told them about this movie but they had not seen this movie, I thought it was odd that only I liked this movie. But now after reading all the reviews, I'm glad that there are so many people who appreciate this movie. It really is a movie many have not seen.What can I say about the movie, it's mesmerizing. Strongly recommended. Just go for it, worth an experience.

This is another excellent love movie that most people miss out on. I remember watching this way back when it was shown on the local public television channel and was so mesmerized by the whole movie. When I first saw it, I was much younger. I enjoyed it so much I wanted to watch it again however it was hard to find a copy and it wasn't played anymore on TV. Many years later I was able to find it at a local movie rental store. Thinking that it probably won't hit the spot like it did the first time, I was wrong. I enjoyed it just as much like the first time. It's hard to find a good love movie involving a romance so full of many emotions. I go back and rent this video every now and then to watch. This movie and "The Notebook" touched my heart in almost the same way. If you enjoyed watching "The Notebook" or haven't seen both and simply enjoy watching heart touching romantic movies then you must watch both! Innocent love lost and betrayed, it's so sad.

I watch this gem about twice a year, when I feel like having a good cry. This film truly transports me to another time and place.There are timeless morality issues dealt with in the story, and the unforgettable ending gives a person goose bumps. Seeing the film inspired me to read the story it's adapted from(The AppleTree.) There are some differences between the story and the film, of course, and the endings are somewhat different, although the overall idea is on the same wavelength. I feel the ending of the film is very,very strong and extremely suited to the film genre as compared to the written page.The music is exquisite. Not only does it cast a beautiful spell from the very first note, but it remains in your mind long after the film is over.A precious, precious film.
